Lu Xiaoyu was calling him, so it was probably nothing serious.
Most likely, she just wants to ask why I haven't gone to see her in such a long time!
Thinking this, Liu Ergou answered the call.
As soon as the call connected, Lu Xiaoyu started sobbing into the phone, "Sob... Er Gou, where are you right now?"
"Can you come over? Something's happened... sob..."
At this point, Lu Xiaoyu was crying too hard to get a full sentence out.
Hearing her cries, Liu Ergou frowned. "Are you at home?"
Lu Xiaoyu nodded. "Mhm, I'm home, with Xue Lan!"
After hearing this, Liu Ergou said he understood and hung up. He then bid farewell to Zhang Xiuming and hurriedly left.
Just a few minutes after Liu Ergou departed, Zhang Man, who had been waiting for him in an upstairs bedroom, grew impatient. She came downstairs, intending to find him directly. But when she reached the ground floor, she found only her father was left in the living room.
This puzzled her. "Dad, where's Er Gou?"
